Ⅱ.理解
There are many American expressions about insects—like bees, for example. Bees always appear to be busy, moving around their homes, or hives. In fact, you might say your house was a beehive of activity if your whole family was helping you clean. You also might say you made a beeline for something if you went there right away.
Here is an expression about bees that is not used much any more, but we like it anyway. We think it was first used in the nineteen twenties. If something was the best of its kind, you might say it was the bee's knees. Now, we admit that we do not know how this expression developed. In fact, we do not even know if bees have knees!
If your friend cannot stop talking about something because she thinks it is important, you might say she has a bee in her bonnet. If someone asks you a personal question, you might say “that is none of your beeswax”. This means none of your business.
Speaking of personal questions, there is an expression people sometimes use when their children ask, “where do babies come from？” Parents who discuss sex and reproduction say this is talking about the birds and the bees.
Hornets are beelike insects that sometimes attack people. If you are really angry, you might say you are mad as a hornet.
Butterflies are beautiful insects, but you would not want to have butterflies in your stomach. That means to be nervous about having to do something, like speaking in front of a crowd. You would also not want to have ants in your pants. That is, to be restless and unable to sit still.
16. When Tom spends his weekend cleaning his house, we can say he is as busy as ________.
A. an insect B. a hornet
C. a butterfly D. a bee
17. Which of the following expressions can NOT be often heard in daily life?
A. Make a beeline.
B. That is none of your beeswax.
C. It's the bee's knees.
D. My house is a beehive of activity.
18. When you say to Mary “you have a bee in your bonnet”， what do you really mean?
A. She should stop talking about something.
B. You care about her very much.
C. She is in danger and needs help.
D. What she talks about is really important.
19. Which of the following would be discussed next?
A. Some expressions about pigs.
B. Some expressions about noses.
C. Some expressions about bugs.
D. Some expressions about colours.
答案與解析：
在美國，有許多關(guān)于昆蟲的習(xí)語，其中關(guān)于蜜蜂、大黃蜂和蝴蝶的習(xí)語更受人們的青睞。這些習(xí)語的出現(xiàn)，使人們的語言變得更加豐富多彩。
16．D 推理。由第一段第二、三句可知選D。
17．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段前三句可知，習(xí)語“It's the bee's knees”人們已經(jīng)不經(jīng)常說了，因此我們不會(huì)經(jīng)常聽到這個(gè)習(xí)語。
18．A 推理。由第三段第一句可知，如果一個(gè)人喋喋不休地說自己認(rèn)為重要的事情，我們可能會(huì)說you have a bee in your bonnet。因此這個(gè)詞語應(yīng)表示“不要再說了”。
19．C 推理判斷題。由短文第一句可知，本文要講述的是有關(guān)昆蟲的習(xí)語。在四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有C項(xiàng)的bugs(蟲子)與昆蟲有關(guān)。
